2400

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀).

• (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀)

• Evaluate n₁ * 100 = 48000

  48000 / (100 - n₀)

• Evaluate 100 - n₀ = 20

  48000 / 20

• Evaluate 48000 / 20 = 2400

  2400
• The answer to the problem and the result of (n₁ * 100) / (100 - n₀) is 2400
